About this map

Lake Corpus Christi dominates this South Texas landscape, where the Nueces River feeds into a complex network of inlets and peninsulas. The settlement of Dinero sits near the northern reaches of the water, positioned among terrain features like Hog Hollow and Mustang Hollow. To the south, the shoreline becomes more densely populated with residential developments such as Peace Valley Harbor, Los Lomas, and Lake Mathis Point Colonia.

Genealogists will find historical continuity in the presence of Wright Cemetery and Balania Cemetery, located near Mount Lucas. The map reveals a transition from traditional ranching lands, evidenced by the Twin Oaks Ranch, to a modern recreational and residential waterfront economy. Numerous creeks, including Paisano Creek, Mustang Creek, and Ramirena Creek, drain the surrounding hills into the reservoir, illustrating the local hydrology before it reaches the larger basin.
